Product details

The Siemens SENTRON 5SL6225-7RC is a 25 A, 2-pole miniature circuit breaker with a C tripping characteristic and a 7.5 kA breaking capacity rated per EN 60898. It's designed for residential and infrastructure AC branch circuits — think lighting, socket outlets, and general-purpose loads in distribution boards. The 7.5 kA rating tells you it can safely interrupt a short-circuit fault up to that level at 415 V AC without welding its contacts or venting arc gas into the panel.

Mounting position is any.

The 25 A rating at 415 V AC is the continuous current the breaker can carry without tripping in a 30 °C ambient. The C-curve's magnetic trip (5–10× In) means it won't drop out on a motor start that pulls 100 A for 100 ms, but it will clear a bolted fault in under 10 ms. The 7.5 kA breaking capacity per EN 60898 is the maximum prospective short-circuit current it can safely interrupt at its rated voltage — if your panel's fault level exceeds that, you need an upstream current-limiting device or a higher-rated breaker. The 2.2 W power loss per pole at rated current matters for thermal calculations in a crowded enclosure; four of these in a row dissipate nearly 18 W.
